Details[]

The match at Thammasat Stadium in Rangsit will be played behind closed doors to prevent the spread of the virus.

Chiang Rai entered the final as heavy favourites based on their performance in the recently concluded Thai League 1 but Chonburi were able to match them for most part of the match.

And Chonburi defender Chatmongkol Ruangtanaroj's 31st-minute goal did not surprise many as they expected an all-out effort from the Sharks in the wake of their shock semi-final win over Buriram.

Attacking midfielder Sivakorn Tiatrakul restored parity in the 41st minute for Chiang Rai and the two sides went into the breather tied 1-1.

Chiang Rai's Bill and Phitiwat Sukjitthammaku and Worachit Kanitsribumphen of Chonburi missed opportunities to score after the break and a goalless second half forced the match into extra-time.

Chonburi were the more attacking side during the extra time and came close to grabbing the winner on a couple of occasions.

As the clock ticked towards the 120-minute mark, players from both sides started showing signs of fatigue with prolific Chiang Rai striker Bill needing treatment on the sidelines, taking the steam out of the Beetles' attacks.

The ageing Brazilian was substituted a few minutes before the end of the extra time.

Worachit failed to beat Chonburi goalkeeper Saranon Anuin with a last-gasp effort from close range and a penalty shoot-out followed.

Prior to last night's clash, Chiang Rai and Chonburi had each won the tournament twice.

Chiang Rai emerged as a force to be reckoned with when they claimed their first FA Cup title in 2017 before retaining the coveted trophy the following year as well. The Beetles then went on to capture the Thai League 1 crown in 2019 to go with their success in the 2018 League Cup.
